Review for: Flash Event - Meeting Point (Optional Snowmobile)

We had an amazing day trip and a big part of that was thanks to our guide, Andy! He was humorous and engaging throughout the journey, making the long winter drive feel fun and lively. Wish we have more time at the Zoo!!! Our group was quite speedy and efficient, so we managed to reach most attractions as one of the earliest groups, which made the experience even more enjoyable (less crowd, more photos!). Andy also kindly gave us abit of extended time at the snowmobile activity and at Ningle’s Terrace. we even got to see the lights come on at Ningle’s Terrace before heading back to Sapporo — such a magical way to end the day. Highly recommend Andy if you’re visiting Hokkaido. Fun, well-organised, and thoughtful — couldn’t have asked for a better guide! ❄️✨

Review for: Flash Event - Meeting Point (Optional Snowmobile)

Just finished an incredible Hokkaido tour and honestly, it exceeded all expectations! Our visit to Arashiyama Zoo was such a unique experience—being able to get closer to the animals in a natural, snowy setting made it feel very different from typical zoos. It was especially memorable for our little one! Then we headed to Ningle Terrace, which felt like stepping into a real-life fairytale. The cozy wooden cabins, soft lighting, and snowy atmosphere created such a magical vibe—perfect for photos and just soaking in the moment. And the highlight? Definitely the snowmobile experience. It was thrilling, well-organized, and super safe. Riding through the vast white landscapes of Hokkaido is something I’d recommend to everyone at least once! Special shoutout to our tour guide—professional, friendly, and very attentive throughout the trip. Everything was explained clearly, the pacing was perfect (especially traveling with a child) Overall, this tour is highly recommended for families

Review for: Flash Event - Meeting Point (Optional Snowmobile)

Visiting Asahiyama Zoo, Shikisai no Oka, and the Famous Tree in Hokkaido was a truly memorable experience. Asahiyama Zoo was unique and enjoyable, especially seeing the animals up close in their natural-style habitats. Shikisai no Oka was absolutely beautiful, with wide open landscapes and colorful views that felt peaceful and refreshing. The Famous Tree added a simple yet meaningful stop—quiet, scenic, and perfect for photos. Overall, Hokkaido’s natural beauty and charm made the trip unforgettable and worth every moment

Thank you to our guide Li Feng, very friendly and clear instructions. I‘m and my cousin enjoy this trip but a little bit disappointed because the time we came don’t have snow. I dream so long to play Slide in Biei. But i understand we can’t predict the weather. I will repeat again this trip when i come again Sapporo.

I joined Kevin’s one day Furano tour and it ended up being one of the best experiences of my entire Hokkaido trip. He’s very professional, patient and knows all the good photo spots. He also helped us understand the local culture and made sure we felt safe and relaxed throughout the trip. Really appreciate his kindness and effort. I highly recommend him to anyone visiting Hokkaido

Highly Recommended! Totally no regrets booking this tour! Our guide, James, was very insightful and humorous, the whole trip doesnt feel dry. He made sure we reached every destination on time without ever feeling rushed. If you’re booking this trip, just grab breakfast beforehand! Hot bites takeaways are available at the zoo, snowmobile stop, and Ningle.
